Chapter 692: Chapter 456: Martial Judge Wang Defa!_2
“Ding!”
“The ghost was frightened, merit points +1000, rifle skills +1.”
“Ding…”
A series of system prompt sounds rang in Xu Yang’s mind.
Xu Yang: “???”
He looked at the ghost soldier captain and asked in surprise, “Do you know me?”
Ghost Gate was very far from Fengdu City, probably more than 100,000 miles away, and Xu Yang always used teleportation formations to travel between them.
Xu Yang knew he was now quite “infamous” in Fengdu City… but would that really spread all the way to Ghost Gate?
Upon hearing Xu Yang’s question, the ghost became even more frightened, its body trembling, its legs wobbly, and said nervously, “In response to Celestial Master Xu, this humble one once served in the underworld branch of Fengdu City… I was fortunate to have seen Celestial Master Xu once in the underworld.”
“Ding!”
“The ghost was frightened, merit points +1000, rifle skills +1.”
“Ding!”
“The ghost was frightened, merit points +1000, rifle skills +1.”
“Ding…”
Xu Yang furrowed his brows and wondered, “You only saw me once, why are you so afraid of me… I remember now!”
Xu Yang chuckled, “You are the underworld soldier captain who used a rifle from the underworld?”
Xu Yang had encountered a rifle-wielding underworld soldier captain last time he went to the underworld branch of Fengdu City.
At that time, Lord Cui had created a clone of Xu Yang to ruin his reputation in Fengdu City. The soldier captain had been frightened after seeing Xu Yang, thinking Xu Yang was interested in him.
To earn merit points, Xu Yang deliberately slapped him on the butt, saying he would invite him to dinner after meeting Lord Cui.
However, after meeting Lord Cui, the guy had resigned and fled.
Unexpectedly, they met again today at Ghost Gate.
“Destiny, destiny!”
Xu Yang went forward, clapped the ghost soldier captain on the shoulder, and laughed, “I didn’t expect us to meet like this… Don’t run away, wait for me to come back, we’ll drink together.”
While speaking, Xu Yang intentionally pinched the ghost soldier captain’s waist.
The ghost soldier captain jumped up as if he had been electrocuted.
“Ding!”
“The ghost was frightened, merit points +1000, rifle skills +1.”
“Ding!”
“The ghost was frightened, merit points +1000, rifle skills +1.”
“Ding…”
He wore a sad face as if he was going to die, while Xu Yang laughed heartily, leaving with Yue Yuluo and the thirty-eight Ghost Immortals.
“Holy crap, captain!”
“You’re so awesome, you actually know someone that powerful?”
A group of underworld soldiers gathered around the captain, asking him incessantly, “Just now, those thirty-eight people were all peak-level Ghost Immortals, and that handsome man managed to make them restrain their aura with just a sentence, he’s probably a real immortal… Captain, when did you get to know someone that strong?”
The ghost soldier captain wanted to educate them about the terrifying “Celestial Master Xu”.
But on second thought, he eventually decided against it.
He returned to the barracks, silently packed up his belongings, found his immediate superior, and said, “General, I… I want to resign!”
…
Now back to Xu Yang.
He used the teleportation formation, bringing Yue Yuluo and the thirty-eight Ghost Immortals to a place 700 miles from Fengdu City.
It was still the same fog-shrouded path.
The winding path twisted and turned, but due to the fog, it was impossible to see what lay ahead.
On the path, row upon row of ghosts walked mechanically forward in a line.
“So many ghosts!”
Seeing this scene, Yue Yuluo couldn’t help but exclaim, “My husband, why are there so many ghosts… and they are all heading to Fengdu City… Are so many people dying in the world every day?”
With her vision, even if the fog enveloped them, she could still see a hundred miles away.
On the road where her gaze fell, there were densely packed ghosts.
These ghosts were obviously those who had recently died.
Among them, many ghosts didn’t even know they were dead.
There were underworld officials wielding mourning staffs and soul-binding chains, maintaining order. Whenever a ghost realized its own “death” and went mad, they would take action.
“No!”
“I’m not dead!”
“There’s no way I could die!”
“I am the Crown Prince of the Liyang Dynasty in the Kunlun domain, my father is an Earth Immortal Realm expert, and nine Immortal Beings have emerged from my ancestors … I am destined to rule the world and control Liyang, how can I die?”
A powerful ghost burst into rage, scattering the souls of dozens of weaker ghosts around him!
“Bastard!”
An underworld soldier threw a soul-binding chain capturing him, and scolded, “Note this down, the Crown Prince of Liyang Dynasty has killed forty-two innocent ghosts after entering the underworld …”
Xu Yang also saw some ghosts that seemed to be a family of three.
The woman sobbed, “We just fell asleep … How could we be dead?”
Their ghosts were very weak.
Obviously, they were ordinary people in their previous lives.
Once the Netherworld Demons invade the three realms and start a war, the aftermath alone could destroy cities. Ordinary people simply have no power to resist.
Just through witnessing countless ghosts on this “path to the underworld” to Fengdu City, Xu Yang could vaguely “see” the tragic state of the three realms … This is only because the Heavenly Emperor had already made arrangements, relegating seventy-two immortals to join the war as support.
Otherwise, by now, the three realms would have fallen, and countless creatures in the three realms would have been blood-sacrificed by the Netherworld Demons, turning into the power for the Blood Emperor to break the seal of the netherworld!
“Just some tricks of the Netherworld Demons in the human world have caused countless deaths and injuries to living beings. Within just four months, more than 300 life-sustaining planets in the entire human world have been blood-sacrificed, and countless living beings in the three realms have died.”
“The number of dead people … is probably nearly a trillion!”
“Once Satan leads the hell army to invade Earth … even if those ancient beings on Earth have some arrangements made, what about ordinary people?”
“In such battles, ordinary people are no different from ants, with no power to resist …”
Xu Yang clenched his fists.
He seemed to see the tragic future of Earth.
“My husband!”
Yue Yuluo noticed Xu Yang’s abnormality, grasped Xu Yang’s wrist, and whispered, “My husband, don’t worry … Baihua elder sister said that the Heavenly Emperor already has arrangements for the human world … She said that Earth is the center of the human world and the ancestral homeland of the three realms. It won’t be in any danger!”
Yue Yuluo was very clever.
Obviously, she had guessed Xu Yang’s worries.
But Xu Yang couldn’t help but shake his head, sighing, “Satan is the King of Demons and the Lord of Hell, a Divine-level powerhouse. There are more soldiers in his Hell army than people on Earth … Once the real war begins, I don’t know how many people will die.”
With a glimmer in his eyes, Xu Yang took a deep breath and said, “The woods by the path to the underworld is an excellent place to become immortal … Let’s first become immortals, and after that, we’ll go to Fengdu City.”
The woods on both sides of the path were filled with dead trees.
Yin spirits and evil ghosts were densely scattered in the woods.
When Xu Yang first “entered the underworld,” he dared not go into the woods for fear of facing danger … However; now, he was a heavenly immortal, so why should he fear any danger?
He led the thirty-eight Ghost Immortals deep into the woods.
The thirty-eight Ghost Immortals no longer suppressed their cultivation and began to break through one after another.
For a time, the woods were filled with immortal light, and various celestial phenomena appeared one after another, directly lighting up half of the sky.
This place was only seven hundred miles away from Fengdu City, and it didn’t take long before strong experts from Fengdu City came to investigate.
The visitor was a Judge, wearing a green robe, with a Tai Chi Seal on his forehead and wielding a “nine-section whip” while emitting a strong aura. Who else could it be if not Wang Defa?
The Tai Chi Seal on his forehead represented his identity as a “Martial Judge,” and the “nine-section whip” in his hand was also known as the “mace pike.”
Xu Yang’s divine senses scanned and immediately laughed, flying up to greet him, smiling, “Elder Wang, how did you get here?”
Who else could it be if not Wang Defa?
At this moment, Wang Defa was emanating the power of rules of Immortal Daoist, obviously making a breakthrough in his cultivation, successfully stepping into the “Heavenly Immortal Realm.” As a disciple of King Biancheng, his cultivation was already at the peak of the Ghost Immortal Realm more than six hundred years ago. If he hadn’t entered the secular world and experienced the 600-year spiritual aura depletion period, he might have already become a “Heavenly Immortal.”
“Xu Yang?”
Upon seeing that it was Xu Yang, Wang Defa was surprised, “Why is it you? What is the situation over there? I sensed that there are a lot of ghosts, and it seems like they are becoming immortals?”
